Overview
Book online and enjoy exclusive savings on G Adventures 8 Day Walk the Camino de Santiago. If you’re looking to take on your own pilgrimage — along a route filled with beautiful countryside and rustic villages of Northern Spain — start here, at the Camino de Santiago. On this eight-day trip, complete the last 100 km of the pilgrimage route to Santiago and receive a "compostela" at the finish to prove your accomplishment. Refuel with tasty Spanish food and take the time to stop and smell the flowers — it’s active but at a slower, more picturesque pace.
Itinerary
There are no planned activities until tonight's welcome meeting. Stay: La Casona de Sarria
Pass through many lovely towns along the way and maybe choose to have a picnic in places such as Barbadelo, Renta or Ferreiros. Stay: Hotel Villajardin (B)
Walk from Portomarin to Palas de Rei. Weary pilgrims can get a jolt of caffeine in one Palas de Rey's cafes or visit some of the local shops to grab some souvenirs. Stay: Pension Palas (B)
Continue walking through rural Spain. Take a break in the lively market town of Melide (454m), and try octopus, Galicia's most classic dish, in one of the many 'pulperías'. Stay: El Chiquitin (B)
Follow the Camino from Melide to the village of Ribadiso and finally the town of Arzúa. Stay: Pensión Domus Gallery (B)
The Camino walk will pass through pretty woods, sleepy villages and across streams most of the day. Stay: Amenal Hotel (B)
Enjoy a final day of walking through spectacular scenery towards the final destination. Stay: A Tafona do Peregrino (B)
Depart at any time. (B)
Trip Inclusions
- Complete the last 100km of the pilgrim's trail and receive your "compostela".
- Walk through small villages and towns.
- Enjoy hearty and delicious Spanish food.
- Walk into the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
- Your Welcome Moment: Meet Your CEO and Group
- Trekking along the pilgrimage route of Santiago de Compostela (6 days)
- Luggage transport throughout
- Hotels (7 Nights)
- It is important to note that accommodation in Europe tend to be quite different to other areas of the world you may have travelled in. Buildings and rooms are generally old and may not have been renovated or maintained to the highest standard. Downtown hotels in Europe were not build to be hotels but rich owners houses, which have been changed into hotels. Therefore unusual room sizes are common as large rooms have been partitioned in the past, resulting in rather "thin" walls. Reception areas, rooms and bathrooms tend to be very small as they were often added into an existing room, and may have a hand nozzle rather than a conventional shower head.
- On this trip you can expect to stay in small family-run hotels or pensions (with the exception of the start and finish hotels, which are often larger city hotels), which will vary a little in standard and facilities: some may not have elevators, air-conditioning or English-speaking staff, but most importantly all are locally-run, with some traditional character, and in excellent central locations to give you maximum time for exploring the sights. You can expect to find clean, safe, simple accommodation in convenient locations.
- Staff can occasionally demonstrate less than perfect customer service. As accommodation is in short supply, especially during the summer months, hotels can charge a premium and there is sometimes little motivation to improve facilities.
- CEO (Chief Experience Officer) throughout
- 7 breakfasts
- Walking
- Accommodation, itinerary and inclusions subject to change.
- Price is for land, cruise and internal flights as specified. Flights not specified are not included
